## [5 Ways to Train Your Brain to Concentrate](https://blog.palmhealth.com/5-ways-to-train-your-brain-to-concentrate)

Imagine you’re sitting in a meeting for work. Your boss is talking about planning for the next quarter. You have a notebook out and you’re scribbling notes. Then, you hear a ding from your phone, which is lying face-down on the table next to you. You start to wonder who it’s from, what it’s about, and if you need to check it. You quickly glance at it to make sure it’s not something pressing. In the time since you first heard the ding, you’ve completely switched gears in your brain and missed several minutes of discussion on the next quarter’s goals. In t...

Feeling low energy lately? Getting sick more often than usual? Feel like your body just isn’t recovering as well as it should from day to day? A lot of these symptoms can be associated with a deficiency or dip in essential vitamins and nutrients. There are many ways you can address those deficiencies or bolster your natural concentrations of essential nutrients, but one of the fastest and most direct ways to do so is intravenously, also known as IV drip therapy. How does IV Therapy work? IV therapy works by delivering a carefully formulated blend of vita...

## [Tips to Declutter Your Space and Embrace Change](https://blog.palmhealth.com/tips-to-declutter-your-space)

Spring is a time of transition — the weather gets warmer, plants start blooming, and we all start to come out of our winter shells. That winter hibernation period can often leave us feeling cluttered, scattered, and stir-crazy, so what better time than spring to get organized and refocused? Disorganization and clutter in your space can make you feel disorganized in your mind, body and spirit. According to Julie Geeting, licensed therapist and well-being coach, “Getting curious about what’s behind the disorganization in your space and making an effort to ...

It’s that time of year again — sneezing, itching, sniffling, and coughing. Chances are, you’re one of the 24 million Americans who experience seasonal allergies, and you’re familiar with the toll it can take on your body. Due to both the symptoms of seasonal allergies and the physiological process your body goes through when reacting to an allergen, your health can suffer more than usual during this time of year. And oftentimes, allergy medicines only provide temporary relief. It’s important to keep in mind your body’s overall well-being when dealing wit...

What do you do when you’ve had a stressful day and need to recover from it? Take a day off, plan a relaxing evening, or maybe soak in a warm bath? Letting your mind rest and process that stress allows you to come back ready to take on the next day. Interestingly enough, this kind of recovery doesn’t only apply to your mental state. Physiologically, your body works the same way. Stress can be defined in many different ways, whether mental or physical. In the same way that taking a little R&R time helps you deal with mental stress, giving your body specifi...

## [Vitality is Crucial to Your Short-Term and Long-Term Health. Here’s Why.](https://blog.palmhealth.com/why-vitality-is-crucial-for-health)

Vitality, or your state of strength, energy, and vibrance, is key to your health. Here’s why that matters and how to improve and prioritize it on a daily basis. The term “vitality” is often used in the health and wellness space, but there’s not a lot of clarity around what it really means. Vitality is the state of being strong, active and energetic. In a longer-term sense, vitality is “a power giving continuance of life.” So what does this mean in terms of your health and well-being? Well, more immediately, it’s exactly what the first definition states: ...
